AMANDA PARRISH Assistant Campus Editor parrish.272@osu.edu Total membership numbers for the Greek community at Ohio State dropped for the first time since 2010 due to the suspension of four fraternities.

According to data provided by the Office of Student Life, the membership for Greek life decreased from 4,644 in 2017 to 4,371 in 2018.

The numbers are from the fall semester of each year since being under the deferred joining system, which only includes social Greek letter organizations, Dave Isaacs, spokesman for the Office of Student Life, said.

Isaacs said the decrease is due to the fact that at the time the 2018 numbers were compiled, four large fraternities had been suspended: Alpha Epsilon Pi, Phi Kappa Psi, Sigma Alpha Mu and Tau Kappa Epsilon.

Alpha Epsilon Pi and Sigma Alpha Mu were suspended in May until 2023 after violating the Alcohol, Hazing and Endangering Behavior and Failure to Comply with Earlier Sanctions sections of the Code of Student Conduct. Phi Kappa Psi was suspended in June until 2022 for violating the Hazing and Endangering Behavior sections. Tau Kappa Epsilon was suspended in January 2018 for three years after an investigation found them guilty of hazing, endangering behavior and improperly using alcohol.

Jake Severyn, president of the Interfraternity Council and member of Phi Kappa Tau at Ohio State, said the drop in total Greek life membership is just a momentary change in the numbers, and that their recruitment projections for 2019 are expected to be on par with what they have seen in pre-

vious years.

“We feel there is still that desire to join Greek life,” Severyn said.

“While the total may have shifted a little bit, I don’t think [the suspensions] impacted our recruitment.”

From 2010 to 2017, the membership numbers representing all social Greek letter organizations showed an increase every year.

The largest jump in membership occurred from 2015 to 2016, increasing from 4,173 to 4,623, with the smallest occurring the years following with 21 more people involved in 2017.

In terms of recruitment and increasing membership, Severyn said IFC tries to go out and talk to students about what the Greek life experience is about for those who might have never interacted with the Greek community before or are a first-generation college student.

“Greek life is about something bigger than yourself,” Severyn said. “I think the biggest part IFC has in all of that is helping communicate that to students.”

With the recent suspensions, Severyn said IFC has worked with on-campus organizations to come up with ways to advocate for safe practices in the fraternity community.

“When I look back on that suspension period, that really was a moment for us to realize what are some of the things that are happening in our community and how can we address them,” Severyn said. “It was a learning experience, and it really put into perspective what needs to change in our community.”

Severyn said that the community is looking to address the issues that have risen in the community, but it starts with understanding what they are.

The first thing a student can expect out of the OSUPD Community Police Academy is nothing like what they’ve seen on their favorite cop shows.

“We’re learning the insight into the job and more technicalities that you wouldn’t see on television,” Kilea White, a second-year in criminology and criminal justice, said. “It’s the things that you don’t always see out in public.”

The Community Police Academy offers Ohio State students and faculty a behind-the-scenes look into a day in the life at the Ohio State University Police Division through a rigorous four-week training program on OSUPD policies and procedures held each semester. Each session includes weekly classes in Blankenship Hall, with a delivery method of classroom lectures and practical application to as many as 20 participants, concluding with an optional two-hour ride along with a university police officer.

Detective Cassandra Shaffer, program coordinator, said it is an inclusive experience that many won’t be able to find anywhere else.

“A program like this is pretty innovative,” Shaffer said.

“There’s not a lot of departments that can say they do this, especially in the university setting.”

Started in fall 2016 under the direction of former Chief Craig Stone, the mission of CPA is to encourage and develop the relationship between the university community and university law enforcement through education and community interaction, Shaffer said.

Shaffer said University Police are here to not only protect persons and property, but also to value the opinions of the community to improve as a police division.

The classroom lectures consist of presentations, case studies and discussions on police strategies

by University Police members who specialize in the field of discussion.

For example, one lecture focused on the University Police’s dedicated unit for criminal investigations that assists the FBI and other law enforcement agencies. This unit investigates quesOSUPD CONTINUES ON 3

Nothing goes to waste

ZACH VARDA Campus Editor varda.6@osu.edu When Danny Freudiger first heard about Wasted Opportunities, he wasn’t quite sure what to think.

He was behind the idea of eliminating food waste, but didn’t know much about the operation or how exactly he could help.

The team at Wasted Opportunities had contacted him — a graduate student in mechanical engineering — about helping with data collection.

Freudiger agreed to meet some members at the Ohio Union for a cursory conversation about how he could help.

But 15 minutes into their conversation, Mike Fackler, team captain of Wasted Opportunities, realized a better option was right around the corner; one of the team’s runs to pick up food from campus cafes was finishing up and Fackler could show Freudiger the fruit of their labor.

ANNA RIPKEN | SENIOR LANTERN REPORTER When Freudiger saw the sheer amount of Wasted Opportunities team members pitch their sustainability project idea for collecting and distributing otherwise wasted food in the back of the golf cart — boxes food from dining locations on campus. full of bagels, fruit bowls and premade salads — he was on board. just very angry about how much food we The group now makes pickups five times to Paris for a sustainability conference.

tionable deaths, sexual assaults, financial crimes, missing persons, cyber crimes, suspect and pre-employment background check as well as complex or involved cases.

For the practical side of the course, participants engage in a hands-on experience each class, such as a mock traffic stop, dusting for fingerprints or completing a building search of Blankenship Hall, where they simulate a response to a given situation.

Shaffer said these scenarios give participants a glimpse into the training and everyday tasks that police have to complete.

During the building search, students get to experience what it’s like for officers to search a building for possible suspects with the use of a flashlight. University Police demonstrate the “slicing the pie” tactic, in which participants find the entry point of their search, such as an open doorway, and move slowly and cautiously across the entry point to avoid being seen by the suspect, played by one of the officers.

Nichole Charnigo, a second-year in criminal justice, said she found the practicals especially useful to prepare her for the police academy, which she plans to enter one day.

“When we were doing the building searches and the traffic stops, I learned that you can’t be shy about it,” Charnigo said.

“You have to be confident in yourself as an officer to communicate clearly.”

When it comes to choosing the topics for class, Shaffer said they focus on the most controversial topics in today’s society.

“Instead of picking easy, safe topics, why don’t we take the topics that are the hardest to talk about?” Shaffer said. “Like anything at Ohio State, let’s be the example

to everybody else. If done right, an honest conversation can be had with the community on a tough subject.”

By bringing up tough topics, such as traffic stops and use of force, participants ask questions about why officers do the things they do, and officers get a chance to explain themselves, Shaffer said.

For example, some participants asked why officers may use “excessive” force with individuals. Shaffer said that officers rely on training and experience as an objective officer when they apply force.

“A controversial use of force mixed with bad information is a cancer in this country, and it’s divisive,” Shaffer said. “It creates problems within our society that makes it

even harder to get past what’s going on.”

Shaffer said another obstacle for officers is that there is a major difference between relying on investigatory information and something someone puts on social media, and it doesn’t help the police or the public.

She said the 2016 attack on campus was a prime example of people putting inaccu-

rate information out on Twitter and Facebook that confused the public.

Traffic stops, which are one of the leading causes of line-of-duty deaths, also pose a risk for officers every day.

“Each officer that comes in here every day knows that they’re taking a risk that they might not go home,” Shaffer said.

“Understanding the mechanics of what we do, how we keep ourselves safe and how we keep the driver and passengers of said vehicle safe are all the things we have to consider during a stop.”

For Antonio Campos Bailey, a fourthyear in criminology and criminal justice, the CPA reassured him of his passion to join the police force.

“It gives me that extra motivation and confidence that this is honestly what I want to do for the rest of my life,” Campos Bailey said.

When participants graduate from CPA, they leave with more than just knowledge on law enforcement, but also with skills on how to be proactive citizens, Shaffer said.

“Everyone can learn something from it.

We don’t get to see things the way they do,” Casey Hoerig, director of IT of the College of Pharmacy, said. “Seeing what they go through helps us understand how we as the public can help them do their jobs better and look out for each other.”

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Ohio State students need to ‘Take Back the Tap’ Dear Editor: As a member of the student body, I am painfully aware of the excessive bottled water consumption on campus. The privatization of water as well as the environmental damage that results is more than enough to warrant elimination. “Take Back the Tap” is a campaign run by the national organization Food Water Watch (FWW) with goals to do just that — eliminate the sale of bottled water on campus. However, this daunting task is not possible without the help of students.

We have the right to safe, clean and affordable water. The false belief that bottled water is better than tap is driving a multi-million dollar industry. This power given to the water bottle industry results in its ability to go into communities and sell the water they need for drinking water.

The production of single-use plastics is incredibly energy intensive and causes unconscionable amounts of waste, leaving behind a huge environmental footprint.

The goal to eliminate bottled water on campus aligns with Ohio State’s mission to make campus sustainable. According to FFW, 71 percent of plastic bottles are not recycled. As one of the largest public universities in the U.S., not only do we have

the potential, but we have the responsibility to be a role model for other universities.

Recently, the Take Back the Tap campaign has experienced wins in NYU as well as in all 21 campuses of the California State University system. These campuses will soon eliminate all distribution and sale of bottled water on campus and join the more than 73 other campuses that have either fully or partially banned the sale of bottled water on campus.

Students and faculty are greatly urged to “Take Back the Tap” by making the choice to use refillable water bottles, as well as let the administration know where you stand by signing the Take Back the Tap petition.

Join this movement to fight back against the privatization of water and the environmental damages bottled water creates. Bottled water might sound like a small change in the path to sustainability, but the impact that this ban would have is a huge stride for our campus.

Charley’s long a staple of Ohio State EDWARD SUTELAN Editor in Chief sutelan.1@osu.edu

In the summer of 1986, Robin Bennett walked nervously into the small 17th Avenue and High sandwich shop with her date, unsure of what the day would have in store for her.

As a reporter for The Lantern, she had been spending more and more time with the paper’s restaurant critic, Doral Chenoweth III, the son of Columbus Dispatch critic Doral Chenoweth II nicknamed “The Grumpy Gourmet.”

This was their first date, but it was also for business. They were going to review the new restaurant, Charley’s.

Located in an old Kinko’s, Chenoweth described the restaurant as being “approximately 500 square feet of restaurant” with green carpeting and brass railing separating the limited dining space from the kitchen in his May 8, 1986, review.

But Bennett didn’t remember much of that. All she remembered was being anxious, unsure what to be critiquing about the foo, and trying hard to impress her date.

That, and the lone employee working in the back — an Ohio State student, toiling away at the classic Philly cheese steak sandwiches.

“He was the only person in the restaurant,” Bennett said. “There was no cashier.

Nobody else making sandwiches. It was just him and us.”

The student was Charley Shin, owner of the small sandwich shop. Shin had opened up the restaurant in March 1986 while studying finance, real estate.

He debated dedicating 100 percent of his focus to the restaurant and abandoning his remaining two quarters at the university, but decided against it.

“I juggled a little bit, but it was worth it,” Shin said. “I’m so glad I got done with school and got that diploma.”

The juggling paid off. Thirty-three years after opening the doors to his small sandwich shop, Shin is a millionaire, with nearly 600 stores opened in 46 states and 17 countries.

But his journey to becoming the owner

AMAL SAEED | ASSISTANT PHOTO EDITOR

Charley Shin, the owner of Charley’s and Bibibop, started his business in 1986 on 17th Avenue and High as a small sandwich shop.

“He was the only person in the restaurant. There was no cashier. Nobody else making sandwiches. It was just him and us” ROBIN CHENOWETH Communication Specialist at College of Education and Human Ecology

of one of the leading sandwich chains in the world did not begin in 1986. Instead, it began nine years earlier.

-----Shin and his sister immigrated to the United States from Seoul, South Korea, in 1977. His mother, Young Pak, had arrived in the U.S. almost two years earlier after she had been invited by Shin’s aunt. He joined his mother in the states when he was in the seventh grade and lived on the East Side of Columbus.

Adapting to the U.S. was a gradual process. He began attending Johnson Park Junior High although he spoke very little English.

“I was so bored. I was so sleepy,” Shin said. “That was basically it because I didn’t

Columbus Symphony Orchestra to bring ‘Jurassic Park’ to life ASHLEY KIMMEL Lantern reporter kimmel.103@osu.edu Longtime fans of the Steven Spielberg classic will get to relive their fantasies of prehistoric predators with the Columbus Symphony Orchestra’s rendition of the film’s iconic score.

The Columbus Symphony Orchestra will present “Jurassic Park in Concert” this weekend with its performance of the original John Williams score alongside the film.

The entire film will be projected on a screen above Ohio Theatre’s stage, accompanied by live music from the orchestra.

Stuart Chafetz, conductor of the piece, said he remembers seeing “Jurassic Park” for the first time and found it frightening, but still loved the film and its soundtrack.

“The music is so good, and being able to have it live with a symphony orchestra is like a whole other level of cool,” Chafetz said.

Chafetz added that he is a big fan of Williams’ work, and its theme song often sends chills throughout his body. He said Williams’ music can capture the intensity as well as

really understand much of what was going on.”

In the next few years he began to pick up on the language, and as Shin grew up around U.S. culture, he began to develop an adoration for Ohio State University. By the time he was ready to graduate from Columbus Alternative High School, there was never any second thought: He would attend Ohio State.

Despite knowing what college in which he wanted to enroll, Shin said he entered unprepared for college life. He believed it would just be a continuation of high school and was shocked by the coursework when he began attending classes.

On top of classes, Shin had to work to help support his family. His mother ran a Japanese restaurant near campus where he helped when he could. He also worked as a dishwasher at another restaurant. Federal and state grants paid for his education and his books, which Shin said helped put him through college.

One day, his mother slipped and fell, and working at the restaurant became more of a challenge. Shin convinced his mother to sell the place, but the money eventually ran out. So he convinced her to invest in him and the vision he had for his own restaurant.

He called it Charley’s.

-----The inspiration for his restaurant’s menu came from an unexpected detour on the journey to visit his aunt and uncle in New York City when he got lost on the winding streets of Philadelphia.

“The road in Philly is ridiculous. It still is like that. Once I’m on the wrong path, it’s impossible to turn around,” Shin said.

There he encountered his first Philly cheese steak. He had never considered opening a Philly cheese steak restaurant, but the idea stuck.

He wasn’t much of a chef. Sure, he had cooked from time to time, but he didn’t exactly have the best experience upon which to build his restaurant. So Shin went to a butcher shop and asked for thin slices of rump roast. He bought some provolone cheese and hoagie rolls and cooked up CHARLEY’S CONTINUES ON 5

the calmer parts of the film, while also emphasizing the characters.

“He’s so gifted at helping to contribute to tell the story,” Chafetz said.

Though Chafetz has been conducting for 20 years and has done the “Jurassic Park” score numerous times with other orchestras, he said he still finds the score to be a challenge.

“My biggest fear is just losing concentration,” Chafetz said. “You can’t think about anything else.”

The show being held at Ohio Theatre, which was originally a movie house, is something Chafetz described as fantastic and a new way of presenting events that combine movies and live orchestras. Chafetz said he knows it will be popular among Ohio State students.

Rolanda Copley, the Columbus Association for the Performing Arts publicist, said in an email that she finds it fascinating when recorded art is combined with live, performance art.

“It’s the best of both worlds and quite a sensory experience,” Copley said.

His friends enjoyed the sandwiches, and the idea took off.

At first, the restaurant had limited options: a grand steak, a pineham (pineapple and ham sandwich), a crown steak, and

ham and swiss. All with a side of french fries.

“The one negative item about the restaurant is that Charley’s offers no alternative to ordinary white bread for the seven-inch, regular-sized sandwich buns,” Doral Chenoweth III wrote in his review.

The restaurant wasn’t well labeled either.

It was just called, “Charley’s,” with “Philadelphia Style Sandwiches” written below the title. Shin instituted a small change: an awning that said “Charley’s Steakery,” back-lit and covering the storefront in 1987.

Charley’s took off. Within a month of the slight change, sales had doubled, and they never slowed, Shin said.

Shin opened a second restaurant in Lancaster, Ohio. Then another in the Columbus Convention Center.

“Second restaurant did better than the first one, third one did better than the sec-

ond one, fourth one did better than the third. It just started to really build,” Shin said.

-----Just after the third restaurant opened up, Shin went to lunch at a Japanese sushi bar called Otani. There, he met a man who he said looked like Ernest Hemingway. His name was Barry Zacks, and he was the founder of Max & Erma’s, another Columbus-based chain.

They began to have some small talk about each other’s restaurants. Zacks said he had eaten at a Charley’s half a block away from the new Max & Erma’s he had recently opened. Shin began to pick the successful restaurateur’s brain, wanting to know what he did to expand his company.

The two eventually met for dinner where Zacks answered all of Shin’s questions, and when Shin offered to pick up the tab, Zacks refused.

“He said I could buy dinner when I become a millionaire,” Shin recalled.

The advice Zacks gave to Shin drove the future vision of his company. First: target shopping malls, where there is a captive audience.

Second: always cook the food in front of the customer like Shin had already been doing.

“Third, your business is a cash business, and you will have a great temptation to keep some for yourself, but don’t do that,” Zacks had said. “Report every dollar you have and pay your taxes and you will be glad you did when you go to the bank to borrow money.’”

Having a mentor like Zacks at such an early, pivotal stage of Shin’s growing business proved to be momentus. Shin said it’s what helped his company take off, and since then he has strived to do the same for other young entrepreneurs seeking a mentor.

Shin said his faith also helped him along

Laura Parnes to appear at the Wexner Center NINA PIERI Lantern reporter pieri.7@osu.edu The Wexner Center for the Arts will welcome another major filmmaker to Ohio State’s campus.

Laura Parnes will present her film, “Tour Without End,” at the Wexner Center at 7 p.m. on Thursday. The film follows a fictional band on tour as it maneuvers through New York during a period of increasing gentrification.

“It’s a film that’s both humorous and serious, and casts real-life artists, musicians and actors as bands on tour, and becomes an intergenerational piece that explores what it’s like to live in the Trump era,” Parnes said.

The film is a “time capsule” of the doit-yourself music scene in New York, with a focus toward the present day with rapid gentrification and places closing, Parnes said.

“It’s good to keep reminders of underground lifestyles present. You don’t often get to see [them] through more conventional films, artworks and news sources.”

“It really captures a moment in time,” Parnes said.

his journey. Shin said he has worked at every step of the way to honor God. “And that basically should state why we come to work,” Shin said. “I share this with anyone who comes to join our company. We want to do our work in the excellent level with integrity and something that we should be proud of because that’s what God respects.”

His faith is what later drove him to open his second chain of restaurants in Columbus, Bibibop. Shin had no desire to open up another restaurant, but said through a series of events, he realized, ‘Oh my gosh, God wants me to open an Asian, quick-service restaurant.’

At that point, he didn’t know what he was supposed to do. But he developed the idea, and in August 2013, he opened the first Bibibop on Fifth Avenue. He did

“Just thinking back two or three years ago, I can think of some really great DIY art spaces around Columbus that don’t exist anymore,” Stults said.

Parnes describes the film as a way to show that we cannot live in a bubble outside of politics – it is inevitable. Parnes

not even wait for it to succeed before opening a second one, three years after opening the first.

“I knew it was going to be successful, and it just took off from there,” Shin said.

-----Robin Bennett graduated from Ohio State in fall 1987. Shortly thereafter, she married Doral Chenoweth III and moved with him to the Carolinas before returning to Columbus.

When she did, she saw the chain had grown since her fateful first date with Chenowith.

“I remember thinking, ‘Wow, this place is way fancier than where that first little restaurant was,’” Robin Chenoweth said. “I also was just kind of impressed. A whole, whole lot of restaurants don’t make it.”

Now, with a location on High Street across from Ohio State’s campus, after a three-year absence, Charley’s is back.

“Ohio State is where we all began 33 years ago, and it’s great to be back at Ohio State,” Shin said. “We always wanted to come back, and we just found the right location, and we came back.”

For Shin though, he never left.

Shin still lives in Dublin, Ohio, with his wife, children and his mother, and though he doesn’t work the kitchen anymore, he still oversees the strategic planning of the company and helps his franchises run successful shops.

And even with Shin’s vision of the chain reaching 1,000 locations by 2022 and 3,000 within the next 10 years, Charley’s headquarters has remained in Columbus.

Columbus has always been home for Shin, and Ohio State has always been home for Charley’s.

said the conversations sound familiar to intergenerational people, but that it applies primarily to the current time period and that they have to confront what’s happening.

Parnes said she sees this film as being very relatable to students, bringing a comparable factor to campus and Columbus as a whole.

“I think a lot of students will identify with what it is to be in a bubble, but then have to confront the reality, which is like the larger context of our society and what is happening now,” she said.

Stults said this film gets to the heart of what the Wexner Center is all about: variety and intersection. The center tries to be a multidisciplinary institution with films, exhibitions and performing arts that are “all on an equal plane and in conversation with each other,” Stults said.

“Laura’s film has musicians, painters, filmmakers and artists all intermingling, showing some ways you could have alternative lifestyles in the 21st century,” Stults said.

Stults also said this film is crucial in the act of recording the underground scene while it is still alive as gentrification is killing off the culture quickly and silently.

“It’s good to keep reminders of underground lifestyles present. You don’t often get to see [them] through more conventional films, artworks and news sources,” Stults said. “It’s really important to document some of these moments and cultures while they still exist. It’s not a conducive time for a lot of these things.”

Admission is $6 for students and $8 for the general public.

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Ohio State takes on Iowa State in NCAA Tournament COLIN GAY Sports Editor gay.125@osu.edu When Chris Holtmann took the head coaching job at Ohio State, he knew what he was getting into.

He was inheriting a team that had not made the NCAA Tournament since 2015, that had not reached the Final Four since 2012 and had not won a national championship since 1960 — the program’s only title.

In his first season, Holtmann got the Buckeyes back into the tournament, but not past Gonzaga, who beat Ohio State in the Round of 32.

Even with the loss of Keita Bates-Diop, Jae’Sean Tate and Kam Williams, even with a lack of identity heading into the season with the amount of new faces on the roster, Holtmann and Ohio State found their way back into the dance and will open their 2019 NCAA Tournament run as an 11-seed against six-seeded Iowa State on Friday in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Ohio State has not played a team from the Big 12 since the 2012-13 season when the Buckeyes lost to Kansas 74-66 in the regular season and defeated the Cyclones 78-75 in the Round of 32 in the tournament.

When describing teams from the Big Ten, Holtmann usually

describes them as “physical.” In the Big 12, he said teams are still very physical, but play at a faster pace than the Buckeyes will be used to.

Despite winning nine of 18 conference games this season, losing five of its last six regular season games, Iowa State found a way to perform well against the high-octane offenses in the Big

12 in the conference tournament, defeating Baylor, Kansas State and Kansas for its fifth title.

“You have to be really good to win your conference tournament in that league. And my guess is they were the No. 1 of the six seeds, I would guess,” Holtmann said. “They could have very easily been a five seed.”

Iowa State comes into the sec-

ond round of the NCAA Tournament with one of the best offenses in the Big 12, averaging 77.2 points per game and shooting 47.7 percent from the field, both No. 1 in the conference.

Leading the way offensively is redshirt senior guard Marial Shayok, who, after transferring from Virginia, is averaging 18.6 points per game and shooting 49.4 percent from the field.

With primarily a four-guard, one-forward lineup, Iowa State is No. 8 in the Big 12 in rebounding, averaging 35 per game, 0.2 rebounds more than Ohio State.

But the relative rebounding success comes from what Holtmann describes as “super versatile pieces” on the roster. Two of the Cyclones’ guards are taller than 6 foot 5 inches, while 6-foot4-inch freshman guard Talen Horton-Tucker averages five rebounds per game.

In his first season with Iowa State, Horton-Tucker, who Holtmann recruited and called “terrific,” averages 12.1 points per game, shooting 41 percent from the field.

Overall, despite being one of the smaller teams Ohio State has faced, Holtmann said the Buckeyes will have their hands full with such a versatile team.

“They have always been very, very hard to guard,” Holtmann said.

Off the bench, Iowa State sophomore guard Lindell Wigginton has been an offensive force, averaging 13.5 points, second-best on the team, in 25.8 minutes per game.

“You have to be really good to win your conference tournament in that league ... They could have very easily been a five seed.”

CHRIS HOLTMANN Ohio State men’s basketball head coach

Iowa State has also found success from 3, coming into the tournament with a 36.6 percent completion percentage, third-best in the conference. Freshman guard Tyrese Halliburton leads the team in 3-point percentage, connecting on 44.1 percent of attempts from deep.

Ohio State will take on Iowa State in the second round of the NCAA Tournament at 9:50 p.m. on Friday in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

WRESTLING

No. 6 Ohio State brings 10-man lineup into NCAA Championships MIKE WELKER Lantern reporter welker.98@osu.edu The Ohio State wrestling team will be the only team in the nation to represent all 10 weight classes when it heads to Pittsburgh Thursday to compete for a title in the NCAA Championships.

No. 6 Ohio State (12-2, 7-2 Big Ten) will try to win the NCAA Championship as a team after finishing second each of the past two postseasons to Penn State. The Buckeyes have the edge as the only team with the ability to gain points in all 10 weight classes, and with multiple wrestlers in contention for individual championships.

“Let’s not take for granted the fact that we did what no other team did this year in the country in regard to qualifying [all 10 wrestlers],” Ohio State head coach Tom Ryan said. “But also, it is Ohio State, and we can attract the best, and we are all seeking perfection and that’s what we are after.”

“It is Ohio State, and we can attract the best, and we are all seeking perfection and that’s what we are after.”

TOM RYAN Ohio State wrestling head coach

The Buckeyes’ 10-man lineup earned five top-5 seeds for the 2019 NCAA Wrestling Championships. Ohio State senior Myles Martin, the No. 1 wrestler in the country at 184 pounds, received the only top seed for the Buckeyes.

SAL MARANDINO | FOR THE LANTERN

No. 1 Vincenzo Joseph of Penn State scores with a double leg takedown on Te’Shan Campbell of Ohio State in the 165-pound bout of the Ohio State-Penn State dual. Joseph won the bout by major decision 11-2. Ohio State lost the dual against Penn State 28-9.

Martin is one of only 12 wrestlers nationally to own an undefeated record heading into the NCAA Championships.

Ryan said Martin has a lot of pressure to win the national title but is confident in his abilities.

“I believe [Martin] is the best pound-forpound wrestler in the tournament,” Ryan said. “We will see come Thursday.”

Ohio State senior Joey McKenna, the No. 2 wrestler in the country at 141 pounds, avenged one of his two losses on the season in the Big Ten 141-pound championship match by defeating Penn State sophomore Nick Lee, the then-No. 2 wrestler in the NCAA at 141 pounds.

McKenna could have a chance to avenge the only other wrestler that has defeated him this season in Cornell sophomore

Yianni Diakomihalis, who is the No. 1 wrestler at 141 pounds and remains undefeated, should they both reach the finals.

Ryan said McKenna learned from his loss, and knows what he needs to do to defeat No. 1 seed Diakomihalis. “[McKenna] had a great match with [Diakomihalis]. We liked the way the match went,” Ryan said. “He has to finish some of the shots he didn’t finish.”

Ohio State redshirt senior Micah Jordan and redshirt junior Kollin Moore, the No. 2 wrestlers in the country at 149 pounds and 197 pounds, respectively, both head into the NCAA Championships as the other two No. 2 seeds for the Buckeyes.

Jordan has lost only two matches this season, both to Rutgers’ Anthony Ashnault, who is the top seed at 149 pounds.

Moore also has two losses to one wrestler: undefeated Penn State redshirt senior Bo Nickal, the No. 1 wrestler in the country at 197 pounds.

Ryan said the wrestlers must go match by match and he expects big things from Jordan and Moore.

“They got to be really smart with the tactics they use and the skill they use when they use it,” Ryan said. “A lot of this at times boils down to quality decision-making.”

Ohio State junior Luke Pletcher, the No. 9 wrestler in the country at 133 pounds, received the No. 5 seed in the NCAA Championships after a strong performance in the Big Ten Tournament, finishing as the runner-up.

Pletcher said the 133-pound weight class was very difficult this season, but still feels ready to compete.

“No matter where they put you in that bracket, it is going to be a brutal way,” Pletcher said. “I think I got a good [seed], ready to wrestle and feel good [about] getting back my mojo and ready to rock.”

Ohio State senior Te’Shan Campbell, the No. 16 wrestler in the country at 165 pounds, received the No. 21 seed in the NCAA Championships.

Campbell transferred to Ohio State from the University of Pittsburgh after the 2017 season and talked about what it means to him to be wrestling in front of his hometown in Pittsburgh for the NCAA Championships.

“Why not have it at home [when] it could be anywhere?” Campbell said. “I look forward to the experience of going back home with friends and family and being able to celebrate with them.”

No. 6 Ohio State will attempt to win its first NCAA Championship since 2015 starting at noon Thursday in Pittsburgh.

Ohio State faces Iowa State in first round of NCAA Tournament. | ON PAGE 7

‘I’m the best player in the draft’

Dwayne Haskins shines in Ohio State Pro Day

Haskins throws with veteran trio one last time

WYATT CROSHER Assistant Sports Editor crosher.1@osu.edu Dwayne Haskins didn’t really have anything he needed to prove heading into Ohio State’s Pro Day. Already considered a top-two quarterback by many in this year’s NFL Draft class, Haskins could have sat out Pro Day completely and not much would have changed.

Instead, at about 1:25 p.m., after a lack of any real excitement earlier in the day due to the absence of defensive end Nick Bosa in the drills, Haskins took the field and showed everyone exactly why he has been so highly ranked to this point.

Haskins threw 50 passes from the 50yard line and completed 45 of them, including each of his throws of 40 or more yards.

Four of his incompletions were well thrown, but dropped by the receiver. In his throws inside the red zone, Haskins completed 13-of-14 passes.

When you ask Haskins about his performance, he could wrap it up in one word.

“Solid,” Haskins said. “I missed two of them. It pisses me off still, but I thought I did pretty well.”

This type of performance doesn’t come as much of a surprise. When in full pads against actual defenses, Haskins completed 70 percent of his passes and tied for the fourth most touchdown passes in NCAA history.

But on Wednesday, when none of those stats mattered, Haskins still found a way to impress with the accuracy of his arm and surprising mobility in the pocket.

“I thought it looked natural; it didn’t look forced,” head coach Ryan Day said.

“I think sometimes when you watch a quarterback, you’re like, ‘How is he going to throw?’ Dwayne threw the way Dwayne throws.”

For the quarterback who only spent one season behind center for Ohio State, his final return to the Woody Hayes Athletic Center before heading to the pros was a bittersweet one.

But Haskins knows what is now important, and he’s known what’s important before he even got his chance to start in 2018.

His performance at Pro Day only pushed him closer to the same end goal he’s had since he was in grade school.

“I’ve been ready for the NFL. I’ve been preparing for it for all my life, and I knew I was ready to play in the NFL before the season even started,” Haskins said. “To have an opportunity to be an early draft pick is a dream of mine since I was a little kid, and I’m just giving it all I got, every opportunity that I get.”

Haskins described college pass openings as “windows” and NFL ones as “keyholes” to describe the increased difficulty he is ready to face.

For Day, he said he is proud of everything Haskins did for Ohio State over the past season. He said his development will show recruits just how much can be accomplished in the program.

There are about five weeks separating Haskins from his future NFL team.

CASEY CASCALDO | PHOTO EDITOR

He leaves Ohio State with quite possibly the most i m p r e s s i ve statistical season by any quarterback in program history.

But that was not the goal for Haskins all his life, and that’s not what his Pro Day was meant to show the world.

All of that is set toward the future, and for a team to have as much confidence in Haskins as he has for himself.

“I feel like I’m the best player in the draft,” Haskins said.

DWAYNE HASKINS

CORI WADE | LANTERN PHOTOGRAPHER

COLIN GAY Sports Editor gay.125@osu.edu Dwayne Haskins said he has always had a natural throwing ability. He said he has an eye to see open receivers, find them on routes and put the ball in the proper spots, over the defensive back, for easy catches.

The only thing he had to adjust over time was the speed of the players to whom he was throwing.

“I was throwing to lacrosse kids in high school, so now I am throwing to 4.2, 4.3 [40-yarddash-time] receivers and they are moving,” Haskins said.

In the comfort of the Woody Hayes Athletic Center, Haskins had an opportunity to throw to those 4.3 receivers one last time, reminding those in attendance what the Heisman finalist did with Terry McLaurin, Johnnie Dixon and Parris Campbell this past season and providing a preview of what each could bring to the next level.

Haskins has always seen the ability of each of his three redshirt senior receivers, complimenting their speed, catch radius and jumping ability.

And after the trio accounted for 47.7 percent of Ohio State’s total receiving yards on the season, Haskins continued to show that off, consistently hitting McLaurin and Dixon starting with 10-yard slant routes to 30-yard post routes to 40-yard streaks into the endzone.

Campbell missed the majority of the workout after slipping on a cut.

This is something Ohio State head coach Ryan Day has gotten used to: watching who many consider to be a top 10 pick throwing to three receivers whose draft stock has steadi-

ly increased since their final game with the Buckeyes.

“Dwayne threw the way Dwayne throws.

Our receivers caught the way they caught and you just saw Terry McLaurin and Johnnie, and those guys work hard to catch the ball and run really fast,” Day said. “That’s what practice looked like, that’s what routes on air look like and that’s what it looked like today.”

It’s a relationship that was not defined immediately. McLaurin, Dixon and Campbell already had developed a rapport with J.T. Barrett, a dual-threat quarterback who utilized his legs in a way Haskins likely never will.

But Haskins only had one requirement for the receivers he threw to: Run every route like it’s a live game, using the speed receivers would use to get open in game action in practice.

With this mentality, Haskins’ relationship with the trio bloomed.

“They got more confidence in me as the season went on, as camp went on that I would be able to put it anywhere on the field, and we had a great time this year,” Haskins said.

To Campbell, that level of comfort created a platform for Haskins to not only be successful but to lead.

“Some people it comes natural to. Some people, they have to work at it. He’s a guy that works at it,” Campbell said at the Rose Bowl. “He’s been an unbelievable teammate, unbelievable leader and a great quarterback for us.”

Day, a former NFL quarterbacks coach, might have been looking at Haskins, Campbell, Dixon and McLaurin like a scout as they gave their best reps in front of representatives from all 32 teams after the months spent preparing for the draft.

In his first season as the Ohio State head coach, Day was instead looking at lost production, a quarterback and three receivers he won’t be able to utilize next season.

But what Haskins and the receivers did in the passing game will be something the head coach can use to build the program’s future.

“For recruits to see the way he’s been developed and the way our pass game is developing, not just at quarterback, but also at receiver,” Day said. “Just to see that stuff go on the field this year, the way we threw the ball — second in the nation in throwing the football — we are proud of that.”

Day said he was proud of the way all three receivers put work into the program, saying he was one of many commending Dixon, McLaurin and Campbell on their collegiate career.

It was the last official workout for all four, but the quarterback did what he always did with his receivers.

That was not Haskins’ focus, saying it will probably hit him later. But he said it was a lot of fun, creating one of the best passing offenses in the span of one season.

For one final time, the quarterback huddled up with his receivers. He said it was their last chance to define their future in an Ohio State uniform.

“As we prayed before we went out there, we said it was the last opportunity,” Haskins said.

“Just make the most of it and it was a great feeling to be able to go out there today and spin the rock for the last time.”

Going out onto the practice field at the WHAC just like the many times the four had before, that’s exactly what they did.
